James Suckling: A tight and juicy red with blackberry and black cherry notes, a medium body, integrated tannins and a slightly hard finish from the high percentage of petit verdot. Pine cone undertones to the dark fruit. Shows character. A blend of 53% merlot, 29% cabernet sauvignon and 18% petit verdot."

Wine Advocate: More approachable than in recent vintages, the 2025 Rahoul reveals aromas of cassis, mulberries and flowers, accented by delicate spice. Medium- to full-bodied, supple and enveloping, it’s juicy and energetic, built around a core of fruit framed by velvety tannins, concluding with a fresh, gently ethereal finish."
